Microsoft Plus! for Windows XPStrengths: Interesting variety Weakness: Still limited versions of games, themes aren't anything special Only bother with this if you see specific features you might enjoy. Microsoft has now combined the new version of Plus (Media Edition) with this old one, to make the Plus Superpack (MSRP $30). This is a better choice, because you will get another set of add-ons for the Media Player too (if you use Windows MP, otherwise, forget it. IMHO, iTunes is a better choice.) Back to this specific item: The...

Microsoft Plus! for Windows XPStrengths: Cool add-ons to Windows XP Weakness: Limited Themes and Games. This is a very good addon for Windows XP if you just do not like the current themes provided out of the OS's box. However I wish for what Microsoft asked for this on the original price they would have added more than 4 new themes. However this is for the person that likes to tweak out and personalize windows.

Microsoft Plus! for Windows XPStrengths: Overall the progam is very artistic and it's a well put together add-on pack for XP. Weakness: it would be real nice if it had more choices to what it already offers consumers. Too few desktop themes and screensavers to choose from. A fuller product will strengthen its appeal. great product idea, but short on themes (4), mouse pointers and other cool effects for the cost of the software. XP isn't as 'cool' without this add-on pack, so guys like me will buy it. It's a little disappointing in the amount of cool stuff that's on the CD. If MS only expanded the above mentioned themes and mousepointers, and even windows "sounds", the product would be worth the full cost.

Microsoft Plus! for Windows XPStrengths: Very easy to install and has a few neat deatures for Windows Media Player. Weakness: Very little enhancements are provided for the price of the software. FOUR themes for your desktop, and no more to download from the XP website?!?!?! Come on, Mr Gates, is your first name Ebeneezer? Definately not worth the price Microsoft is asking for this product.

Microsoft Plus! for Windows XPStrengths: I realy like the ability to use the aquarium screensaver, on my plasma tv. This was the main reason I bought Plus, for the aquarium screen saver. The product also comes with good games, and enhanced video effects, and so on. I really like the product, and I would definetly recommend it to my friends.

Microsoft Plus! for Windows XPStrengths: Mercury Pool screen saver is awesome. Weakness: Aquarium screen saver could contain a greater variety of fish. This product is a good supplement to Windows XP. The themes and screen savers are well worth the price. The games are a lot of fun, especially the Labyrinth mazes.

Microsoft Plus! for Windows XPStrengths: Nice Themes Weakness: Not enough for the money I basically bought this product because I wanted to add more themes to my XP. I do not think it is worth the money because they could have added more themes.

Microsoft Plus! Digital Media Edition
Borderline sexist cash-in and unlike the plus packs on Win 9x, no pinball game for redemption. Just avoid and download custom WMP skins if desperate Top

Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP
Strengths: Beautiful screensavers and themes.
Weakness: Product could not meet the rebate conditions.
Very easy to install. A nice assortment of features. I got it just for the lifelike aquarium screensaver I had seen, but will check out the rest. Windows used to have more screensavers, now they make you pay extra.
